USER GUIDE

It is very easy to remove the valve on your 

paddleboard to check its operation and replace 

it if necessary.

VALVE REMOVAL

Use the valve removal tool that is provided 

in your repair kit. Unscrew the cap of the 

valve and then place the tool into the valve. 

Turn anti-clockwise to unscrew the valve. 

Once you’ve loosened it with the tool, you 

can repace the cap and unscrew the valve 

the rest of the way by hand.

Check that the rubber seal on your valve is 

in the correct position and that the valve 

opens and closes easily when you push the 

button on the top side of the valve. If your 

valve is broken please contact us to arrange 

a replacement.

Replace the valve by turning clockwise by 

hand at first, then switching to the tool 

to finish tightening it. Make sure that the 

thread is properly aligned before tightening 

and be careful not to over-tighten the valve.
